Greetings...
I am one of two fourth grade teachers here at Galtier. For 17 years I have been teaching in the Saint Paul Public Schools. 1995 was my first year teaching 4th grade at this fantastic school! Previously I taught a spanish prep class at J.J. Hill Montessori in St. Paul.

My family consists of me, my wife, 3 children
Swimming - A fun summer day on the lake...
A fun summer day on the lake...
1 dog, 3 cats and a bearded dragon! My older children have moved out and now there's just 3 of us at home.  We live across the border in Wisconsin on a small lake where we spend the summer swimming and fishing. I have a 75 mile round trip commute each day... which shows I love it here! 

My hobbies are spending

Here's our truck on a sunny day by the lake!
time with my kids and home restoration and improvement.

During the summer of 2006 my wife and I started our own business! We bought an ice cream truck and began selling ice cream to children in the Osceola, Somerset and Stillwater areas! We call our business
STREET TREATS.

my students get the added bonus of ice cream treats for extra special accomplishments!

I grew up in the St. Croix Valley on the Minnesota side. I graduated from Stillwater High School in 1986.
